¹⁵ And Moses said unto his father in law, Because the people come unto me to enquire of God:

¹² And they put him in ward, that the mind of the Lord might be shewed them.

³⁴ And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him.

¹⁷ Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; but ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring it unto me, and I will hear it.

⁷ Wherefore now let the fear of the Lord be upon you; take heed and do it: for there is no iniquity with the Lord our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of gifts.

²³ These things also belong to the wise. It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment.

⁹ Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law.
